Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

In the test conditions, in the presence of the test substance (700 ug, 210 ug, 70 ug, 21 ug and 7 ug/plate), the test substance does not induce any mutagenic change in Salmonella typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA99, TA100 and Escherichia coli WP2(uvrA) (pKM 101), without or with metabolic activation according to the OECD Guidelines n°471 and to the method B13/B14 of the directive 2000/32/EC
